There is no way that Naomi Campbell is 40 anything! Campbell continues to slay in ad campaigns for major brands as well as fashion houses and has taken it all almost off for Agent Provocateur’s SS 2015 ad campaign. Naomi was thrilled to star in the campaign especially being a supermodel in her forties and the brand itself was just as excited to have her.

Creative director Sarah Shotton mentioned that, “Naomi and Ellen were perfect for this, as they both have such strong, individual personalities.” She went on to say in regards to the casting of Naomi, “Naomi is the ultimate Agent Provocateur woman: witty, gorgeous, and confident.”

Karen Walker Spring/Summer 2015 Ad Campaign

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 5, 2015Leave a Comment

I couldn’t wait to do a write up regarding Karen Walker’s ad campaign for spring/summer because it has two things that I love: sunglasses and cuteness. In a world of super models, where 5’9 and kick butt cheek bones can score some camera time Walker’s campaign deviates from the fashion industry “norm.” For her collection she chose an unlikely yet fitting model who is huge on Instagram. Ladies and gentlemen we present, Toast, the adorable pooch showcasing Karen’s latest looks.

Toast models five different sunglasses in high fashion glam style with full wind effects and perfect lighting. The campaign was shot by photographer Tom Schirmacher who captured Walker’s vision perfectly. Regarding the campaign and her choice to cast Toast Karen said, “We were after a model for this campaign who could fit with our caramel-y color palette and also someone whose hair would work with our three wind machines hitting her from every angle to create a slightly ’70s vibe. Toast ticked every one of those boxes.”
